Description
This artwork means a lot to me. Actually it is a kind of self-portrait cause the feelings that I''ve tried to express is my own feelings that I had in the moment of drawing.But I was well aware of that I did not draw myself and the most suitable to "wear" my feelings was a young Severus Snape.
It's drawed pale to express invisibility to others, and is also meant to express sadness and loneliness.
The stonewalls is there to capture the coldness in walking through a corridor alone.

Yay Snape!
In all seriousness though, I like this piece. Everything is done well in respect to technique, but more that that I enjoy the emotion captured here.
Personally, there's something about the how the piece is long, not tall, that intensifies the feeling of moving without really having a direction.

This is very interesting! I love how you've projected your emotions onto another character, and worded it so eloquently as to him wearing your emotions. That's pretty cool. Come to think of it, I do that too.
I really like the frame that you've decided for this. The eyes are a main part of the human expression. You've been able to capture sadness and loneliness while keeping his eyes out entirely. Bravo!!!
Also, I like the way you did his nose. It does look like Snape. Great work!

This is a beautiful piece of art - its expression of Snape's loneliness, sadness and the foreshadowing of the seemingly cold character he would grow up to be are truly captured here. Thank you for sharing this with us, you definitely made the right choice posting this!

Thank you! A comment posted 18 hours ago in telling me there needs to be cleaner darker shading on this... Now I'm confused!

hah well like you said its drawn pale to express invisibility towards others. darker and cleaner shading would ruin that emotion, don't ya think?
